Wildlife Crossing Structures: overpasses, underpasses, and canopy bridges

Roads divide and isolate wildlife and make it dangerous or impossible to cross to the other side. The solution is wildlife crossing structures: overpasses, underpasses, and canopy bridges are being installed all around the world. And they work!
